Introduction

This report on remuneration (hereinafter the “Report”) has been prepared by Recordati S.p.A. (hereinafter “Recordati” or the “Company”) in compliance with Art. 123-ter of Legislative Decree No. 58 of 24th February 1998 (hereinafter the “Consolidated Finance Act”), with Art. 84-quater of the regulations issued by the Consob with Resolution No. 11971 of 1999, as subsequently amended (hereinafter the “Issuers’ Regulations”) and on a voluntary basis in accordance with Art. 6 (of the Corporate Governance Code for listed companies (hereinafter the “Corporate Governance Code”) to which Recordati adheres with regard to most of its provisions. The Report is composed, in accordance with Art. 123-ter of the Consolidated Finance Act, of two sections.

Section one illustrates the remuneration policy pursued by the Company in 2015 (hereinafter the “Remuneration Policy”) for the following persons:

i) Members of the Board of Directors of the company, distinguishing between

executive and non-executive directors; ii) General Managers of the company; iii) Other key management personnel of Recordati or of its subsidiaries. The

Regulations for Related Party Transactions approved by the Board of Directors of Recordati on 24th November 2010 (and further confirmed on 11th February 2014) in compliance with Consob regulations on related-party transactions approved with Resolution No. 17221 of 12th March 2010 and subsequent amendments (hereinafter the “Related Party Transaction Regulations”) defines key management personnel as those persons who have power over and responsibility, either directly or indirectly, for the planning, management and control of the activities of the Company, including the Directors (executive and non-executive) of the company itself, full members of the Board of Statutory Auditors, the General Managers, the manager appointed to prepare corporate accounting documents (the “Financial Reporting Officer”) and all those additional persons identified from time to time as such by the Board of Directors, and recommended by the Chief Executive of the Company. For the purposes of this Remuneration Policy, Members of the Board of Statutory Auditors are, however, excluded.

Section one of the Report also illustrates the procedures used to formulate and adopt

the Remuneration Policy and the bodies and persons responsible for the proper implementation of that Policy.

The Remuneration Policy for 2015 was approved by the Board of Directors of the Company on 4th March 2015, on the basis of a recommendation made by the Remuneration Committee on that same date, which had also examined the subject in preceding meetings of said Committee. It may be updated by the Board of Directors on the basis of a recommendation by the Remuneration Committee, which is responsible for periodic assessment of its appropriateness, overall consistency and concrete application. Section one is therefore subject to a non binding vote by the Shareholders’ Meeting called to approve the 2014 Annual Report.

Section two of the Report provides information, with reference to the financial year 2014, on each of the items of which the remuneration of the persons indicated in points i) to iii) above are composed, including the members of the Board of Statutory Auditors. It also gives details in a special table of the remuneration paid to those persons for any

SECTION 1

2015 Remuneration Policy

Procedures used for the adoption and implementation of the Remuneration Policy: bodies and persons involved to formulate and approve the Remuneration Policy and the bodies and persons responsible for the proper implementation of that policy.

The Remuneration Policy is approved by the Board of Directors of the Company on the basis of a recommendation made by the Remuneration Committee, the composition, responsibilities and functioning of which are described in detail in the following sub-section.

After approval by the Board of Directors, the Remuneration Policy is subject to a non

binding vote by the Shareholders’ Meeting held to approve the annual report. The Remuneration Committee has been supported by the Human Resources

Department of the Group in the formulation of a proposal on the Remuneration Policy to be submitted to the Board.

While no specific intervention by independent experts occurred in the formulation of the Remuneration Policy, account was taken in its formulation of the salary policies pursued by other companies in the sector as constantly monitored by benchmarking salary surveys and by annual reports on executive remuneration and corporate governance such as the annual report developed by leading consultant firms. The Remuneration Policy may be updated if necessary or appropriate by the Board of Directors, on the basis of a recommendation by the Remuneration Committee, which is responsible for periodic assessment of its appropriateness, overall consistency and concrete application, as described in detail below.

The Board of Directors complies with the Remuneration Policy, which takes into consideration the conditions and practices for similar markets in defining the remuneration of: the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, inclusive of the remuneration received as General Manager, the other Directors occupying specific positions, the non executive directors.

The Chairman and Chief Executive Officer refers to the Remuneration Policy in setting the remuneration of key management personnel, including those who also occupy the position of executive director.

Without prejudice to the responsibilities of the Remuneration Committee, the Board of Directors is responsible for the following: (i) deciding the remuneration of directors occupying specific positions pursuant to article 2389, paragraph 3 or the Italian Civil Code; (ii) the allocation of the total remuneration for directors set by shareholders, if they have not done so; (iii) the examination of stock option plans to be submitted for shareholder approval and deciding the grant of options in implementation of those plans.

Furthermore, the Board of Directors, supported by the Remuneration Committee,

oversees the implementation of the remuneration policy. The Remuneration Committee

As indicated above, a proposal to the Board of Directors on Remuneration Policy was

formulated by the Remuneration Committee.

The Company created a Remuneration Committee in 2001, in compliance with corporate governance code recommendations. Furthermore, when the Related Party Transaction Procedure was approved, the Board assigned responsibility to the Remuneration

Committee for the formulation of an opinion (non binding or binding according to the case) on related-party transactions concerning the remuneration of the members of the management and supervisory bodies and key management personnel, without prejudice to the provisions of Art. 2.01 f) of the aforementioned Procedure. The current committee was appointed by the Board on 17th April 2014 and is composed of Mario Garraffo, Chairman, Dr.ssa Rosalba Casiraghi and Avv. Michaela Castelli, all non executive, independent directors. The Chairman, Dr. Mario Garraffo, and Dr.ssa Rosalba Casiraghi have specific expertise on financial matters.

The functions currently assigned to the Committee are as follows: - to formulate proposals to the Board on policies for the remuneration of directors, key

management personnel and, where appropriate, other senior managers of the Recordati Group;

- to monitor the implementation of decisions made by the Board itself, verifying the actual achievement of the performance objectives;

- to perform the functions assigned by the Board of Directors in relation to the administration of plans for the grant to employees and/or Directors of the Company and its subsidiaries of shares of the Company or options on them (“Stock Options”), without prejudice to the general responsibility of the Board itself for the supervision also of this matter;

- to express an opinion, either binding or not binding, on related-party transactions of major importance and on related-party transactions of minor importance respectively, regarding remuneration, in compliance with the Related Party Transaction Procedure.

The proceedings of meetings of the Remuneration Committee are governed by the following rules (contained in the Committee’s regulations approved by the Board of Directors):

1. Committee meetings are chaired by the chairman or, in the event of his absence or impediment, by the most senior member of the Committee in terms of length of service on the Board of Directors, or in the case of equal length of service, the most senior by age;

2. responsibility for preparing minutes of meetings lies with the chairman, who shall appoint a secretary from time to time, who may also not be a member of the Committee and who is called upon to minute the meeting;

3. the Committee meets having been convened by notice in writing which indicates the place, day and time and agenda of the meeting to be given by the chairman of the Committee (or in the event of his absence or impediment by the most senior member of the Committee in terms of length of service on the Board of Directors, or in the case of equal length of service, the most senior by age) at least two days prior to the date set for the meeting to be held either at the registered offices of the Company or elsewhere in Italy, as indicated in the notice to convene the meeting;

4. remote participation in meetings of the Committee is also admissible by means of appropriate audio-video, teleconference or telephone links, on condition that all participants can be identified and that they are able to speak and at the same time examine the agenda and the related documents and pass resolutions on them. In these

8

cases the meeting is considered as held in the place where the chairman and secretary are present;

5. the Committee is constituted and passes resolutions with the attendance and vote in favour respectively of the majority of the members in office;

6. the Chairman of the Board of Statutory Auditors or in the event of his absence or impediment another statutory auditor designated by him takes part in the proceedings of the Remuneration Committee in the capacity of a permanent guest. Other statutory auditors may in any case participate;

7. also the CEO and other corporate functions whose participation in meetings is necessary or appropriate in relation to the duties of the committee may be invited to participate from time to time on invitation of the committee and with reference to individual items on the agenda. The Remuneration Committee has the right to access the corporate information and

functions needed to perform its duties and also to make use of external consultants, under the terms and conditions laid down by the Board of Directors. The Committee has the right to ask for adequate funds to be made available to it to carry out its duties.

Objectives

The objectives pursued with the Remuneration Policy are to set remuneration which meets the following requirements: • to be sufficient to attract, keep and motivate managers with the professional abilities

required to successfully manage the organisational and operational complexity of the Company and the Group;

• to align their interests with the pursuit of the primary objective of creating wealth for shareholders over a medium to long-term time horizon;

• to leave a significant proportion of total remuneration linked to the achievement of specific performance objectives, both qualitative and quantitative, set in advance, consistent with the lines of development of the Company and the Group.

Principles and criteria

The underlying principles and governing criteria of the Remuneration Policy are as

follows: • to balance the fixed and variable components of remuneration appropriately in

accordance with the strategic objectives of the Company and the Group; • to provide a fixed component of overall remuneration that is sufficient and

appropriate to remunerate services in the event that the variable component is not paid, because of the failure to achieve performance objectives;

• to set maximum limits to variable components, by linking them to qualitative and quantitative performance objectives, set in advance, that are measurable and linked to the creation of wealth for shareholders in both the short and long term;

• to encourage the fidelity and protection of key Group personnel with incentives to remain with the Group.

Components of remuneration

With regard to members of the Board of Directors, the total remuneration set for

directors by shareholders is allocated among them by the Board of Directors on the basis of the following criteria: all directors are paid a basic fee, plus an extra amount for non executive directors in relation to their appointment to each committee, with a further extra amount for non executive directors who occupy the position of chairman on those committees.

Non executive directors receive no other remuneration except for that described above

and they are not therefore recipients of the benefits of the stock option plans in force. The Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and the Vice Chairman receive an additional

fee set by the Board pursuant to Art. 2389, paragraph 3 of the Italian Civil Code, in addition to the basic fee paid to each director.

The executive directors of the company (Ing. Giovanni Recordati, Dr. Alberto Recordati and Dr. Andrea Recordati and Dr. Fritz Squindo) are also employees of the Company. Like other key management personnel, they therefore receive as part of their employee relationship a total fixed salary and, if the conditions are met, short term variable remuneration based on an MBO (Management by Objectives) scheme, along with a medium to long-term variable component of remuneration, based on stock option plans.

As part of the process of appointing key management personnel, these persons may be paid a recruitment bonus in order to attract particularly high quality human resources. Further details are given below of the components of total remuneration for key management personnel (including the four executive directors). • Fixed remuneration

The fixed component of remuneration, the gross annual salary, which is to say the contractually guaranteed annual remuneration is monitored for all top management positions by sector salary surveys and the amount is set, in order to meet the criteria of retention and adequate remuneration, in a competitive market level.

The percentage of the fixed component of remuneration as part of the overall remuneration varies from year to year depending on changes in the other components of remuneration: the amount of the short-term remuneration linked to the MBO scheme varies from year to year depending on the degree to which the company objective and individual objectives are achieved as described below. The amount of the medium to long-term variable remuneration resulting from the stock option plans is determined by the performance of the price of the Company’s shares. • Short-term variable remuneration (MBO scheme)

The variable component of salaries for key management personnel (including executive directors) is linked to the inclusion of these roles in a Management by Objectives (MBO) Incentive Scheme.

On the basis of this scheme, a bonus is paid on the achievement of annual results defined with the Company and measured according to parameters and weightings set in advance. Bonuses are payable for individuals in amounts proportionate to the achievement of the results for the year in question and with a maximum ceiling equal to 30% of gross annual salary (GAS) excluded as established below for the Chairman and CEO.

The MBO scheme involves the assignment of three individual objectives for each person, each of which is associated with a measurement indicator: this indicator represents the

Page 10: Approved by the Board of Directors March 2015 · This is an English courtesy translation of the original documentation prepared in Italian language 1 RECORDATI S.p.A. REPORT ON REMUNERATION

10

reference parameter which, if reached, determines the percentage achievement of the objective to which it is related.

One objective (Group Operating Income Budgeted) is common to all key management personnel to which the self-financing principle of the MBO Scheme applies. According to that principle, no expenses are budgeted for the variable component of salaries, which is therefore only paid if the Group Objective for Operating Income is exceeded by at least an amount, based on actual results, equal to the variable remuneration to be paid to those persons.

The measurement indicator consists of a progressive scale, the lower end of which corresponds to 100% achievement of the objective and the upper end of which corresponds to 110% achievement of the objective, the ceiling for each objective.

A value is associated to the measurement indicator along a predetermined progressive

scale for each percentage level of achievement of the objective between 100% and 110%.

Different progressive scales of the measurement indicator are possible depending on

the objective; finally the measurement indicator is descriptive for qualitative objectives (not

associated with quantitative measurement indicators, such as projects of particular

importance to the Company).

Each objective is also assigned a percentage of importance (or weighting ratio, which represents the proportion of the objective out of a total of 100%).

The weighted average (according to the percentage weightings assigned) of the percentage achievement of the three objectives assigned gives the percentage achievement of the MBO objective of the person concerned.

The threshold to pass to receive a bonus consists of exceeding the weighted average of 100% (no bonus is paid on a weighted average of less than or equal to 100%), while for the maximum weighted average (110%) the maximum bonus of 30% of GAS is paid.

It is clear, with regard to the above, that by including the important Group operating

income objective among the individual objectives of each individual concerned, Recordati’s

MBO scheme tends not to reward individual performance in itself so much, but rather

individual performance in a context of operating results which will allow the bonus to be paid,

in line with the principle of aligning management interests with shareholder interests with a

view to pursuing the long term interests of the Company. For the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer only, by virtue of his specific and particular

role, the maximum bonus is 40% of GAS. This role is also assigned two “additional” objectives for which a supplementary fixed amount bonus is paid. These are “on/off” type objectives associated with the achievement of key objectives for the development of the Group (e.g. the conclusion of an acquisition or obtaining a product license).

The right to the receipt of a bonus is acquired when the Board of Directors approves the consolidated financial statements from which achievement of the Group Operating Income Objective set when the objective was decided is seen. The bonus is paid in the year in which the consolidated financial statements mentioned are approved. No reason can be seen, at present, to defer payment of the bonus with respect to the time when the right to receive it is acquired, (i) because of the amount, which is rather low in terms of a percentage of fixed income, (ii) because it forms part of a scheme which is already very challenging (see above for information on the self-financing nature of the MBO scheme) and (iii) because, with a view to continuity it lends itself to setting the same objectives each year; furthermore, the main objective for key management personnel, which is Budgeted Group Operating Income, is a target to which all the above persons contribute to achieving, without any single individual being able to influence that achievement exclusively. Finally, deferment of a part of variable remuneration is nevertheless guaranteed by the medium to long-term incentive scheme based on the grant of stock options, reported on below.

Page 11: Approved by the Board of Directors March 2015 · This is an English courtesy translation of the original documentation prepared in Italian language 1 RECORDATI S.p.A. REPORT ON REMUNERATION

11

At present, no need can even be seen to insert criteria for determining conditions for the return of bonuses in contractual arrangements with executive directors, or those assigned particular duties, and with key management personnel, should it be discovered they were determined on the basis of data which was found subsequently to be manifestly inaccurate (i.e. “clawback” clauses).

This is because, in the absence of deferred payment of variable remuneration, and that is deferment that is not made for the reasons given above, the introduction of clawback clauses in the employment contracts of the senior managers in question would not only pose serious problems of interpretation and application, but would not provide an instrument for recovering the sums in question that is any more effective than the remedies available in existing law in the event of fraudulent conduct or gross negligence.

The objectives set for the head of the internal audit function and for the financial

reporting officer are consistent with the duties assigned to them. • Medium to long-term variable remuneration

The medium to long-term incentive scheme adopted by the Company is based on

granting stock option rights. The Stock Option Plans adopted by the Company are available in the relative section of the Company website on the following page http://www.recordati.com/en/corporate_governance/remuneration/stock_option_plans/

As is typical of these types of incentive tools, the beneficiaries are granted the right to purchase a certain number of shares of the company at a set price (the exercise price), once a certain period of time has passed (the vesting period) and the condition for the achievement of the performance objective mentioned below has been satisfied. The right must be exercised before a specified expiration date (the end of the eighth year following that on which the options are granted).

The number of options granted to each beneficiary correlates with the importance of their position occupied in the organisation chart among the various senior management figures.

On the basis of the current Stock Option Plans, options are generally granted on a two yearly basis and according to the Plans, the exercise price is established on the basis of a fair market value calculation (the arithmetic average of the share prices quoted on the stock market in the period running from the grant date of the options and the same date of the previous calendar month); the total options granted to each beneficiary are divided into four equal tranches with four different successive vesting periods: the first tranche can be exercised (if the other conditions set by plans are satisfied) in the second year following that on which the options were granted; the second, third and fourth tranches may be exercised in the third, fourth and fifth years respectively following that in which the options were granted.

It is felt that the “staggered” vesting period described above puts a strong limitation on the likelihood that the beneficiaries of Stock Option Plans will behave in a manner designed to increase the market value of shares in the short-term, at the expense of the creation of value over a medium to long-term time horizon.

An indispensible condition for the exercise of each tranche of options granted is the achievement of a performance objective which is based on the parameter of budgeted net consolidated income.

The existence of a performance clause in the Stock Option Plans also complies with the principle whereby the Remuneration Policy is consistent with the pursuit of the interests of the Company and its shareholders, which must coincide with the interests of the management.

The current Stock Option Plans do not require the beneficiaries to continue to hold a portion of the shares purchased following the exercise of stock options; this is because it is

Page 12: Approved by the Board of Directors March 2015 · This is an English courtesy translation of the original documentation prepared in Italian language 1 RECORDATI S.p.A. REPORT ON REMUNERATION

12

considered that the structure of the stock option plans as described above, with a vesting period “staggered” over four financial years and expiration of the options in the eighth year following that on which they are granted, is sufficient to ensure that priority is given to the creation of wealth for shareholders over a medium to long-term time horizon.

• Extra performance clause

In compliance with the underlying principles of the Remuneration Policy and in line with

the objectives to attract, motivate and retain key personnel, it is also possible to pay bonuses on a one-off basis, with a maximum ceiling of 100% of Gross Annual Salary for the services of key management personnel (including the executive directors) defined as “extra performance”, which is to say performance significantly higher than the base parameters set for the assignment of both short and medium to long-term variable remuneration. Non monetary benefits

The Remuneration Policy does not contemplate particular non monetary benefits

besides those defined as standard for senior management (e.g. company car). End of contract indemnity

The Remuneration Policy does not provide for end of contract indemnities for non-

executive directors nor does it normally do so for executive directors. As concerns other key management personnel, if it is considered to be in the best

interests of the Company, considering the importance of a senior manager’s position in the organisation of the company, agreements may be entered into which involve the payment of special indemnities, usually equal to a certain number of month’s or year’s salary, if an employment relationship is terminated by initiative of the Company for reasons other than “just cause”; reference is also made here to the prevailing market practices at the time. In consideration of those practices no linkage is generally made between these possible payments and the performance of the Company.

In all other cases, should an employment relationship terminate early for reasons other than just cause, key management personnel are paid an indemnity in accordance with the provisions of the law and of the national labour contract for the senior management of industrial companies and in some cases together with an additional amount calculated on a fair pay basis.

In the event of a director retiring from office and/or the termination of the employment relationship of an executive director or a general manager, on conclusion of the internal processes which lead to the grant or payment of indemnities and/or other benefits, the Company shall disclose detailed information on the matter by means of a press release to the market . Additional insurance, social security and pension cover

No additional cover with respect to that which is compulsory by law or provided under

labour contracts is provided by the company except for supplementary F.A.S.I. insurance to cover medical expenses and, for the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, to provide a life insurance policy.

2. INFORMATION ON THE CONSEQUENCES OF ENDING EMPLOYMENT OR DIRECTORSHIP RELATIONSHIPS AND THE EXISTENCE OF SPECIFIC AGREEMENTS WITH DIRECTORS AND KEY MANAGEMENT PERSONNEL In 2014 a supplementary agreement to the executive employment contract between the Company and Dr. Fritz Squindo was signed with an opinion in favour from the Remuneration Committee. This agreement provides for the payment to this senior manager of an indemnity equal to his gross annual remuneration (inclusive of variable remuneration and bonuses) received in the 60 months prior to the date of the termination of his contract, in the event of his contract being terminated by the Company, except for the circumstance of dismissal for

Page 17: Approved by the Board of Directors March 2015 · This is an English courtesy translation of the original documentation prepared in Italian language 1 RECORDATI S.p.A. REPORT ON REMUNERATION

17

“just cause” and termination of the contract by the senior manager in application of the provisions of the National Labour Contract for senior managers of companies that produce goods and services in the following cases: transfer of the ownership of the company, inclusive of cases of concentrations, mergers, demergers, transfer of the senior manager to another place of work, committal to trial of the senior manager for facts relating to the duties assigned to him, and change of job role. The indemnity shall replace and totally cover any indemnities determined in application of the aforementioned National Labour Contract in the cases mentioned above. With regard to incentive schemes based on financial instruments, the Company agrees to act in such a way that the senior manager maintains the right to exercise the option rights granted, once they have vested, under the terms and conditions laid down for the aforementioned plans for the beneficiaries in general.

A supplementary agreement to the executive employment contract between the Company and a member of key management personnel was signed with an opinion in favour from the Remuneration Committee under the same terms and conditions as those set out in the previous paragraph.

Finally, prior to signing an employment contract a supplementary agreement to the contract subsequently entered into was signed by another member of key management personnel, which provides for the payment to the senior manager of a “golden handshake” remuneration of 36 month’s salary in the event of termination of employment contract by the Company, except for termination for “just cause”; the senior manager shall have the right to that remuneration until within three years of obtaining the right to a pension at which time the remuneration will diminish by one month for each month of employment. The effects of the end of contract on rights granted under incentive schemes based on financial instruments in place, approved by S.p.A. in accordance with Art. 114 bis of the Consolidated Finance Act are not expressly regulated and therefore the provisions of the Stock Option Plans illustrated below apply.

No agreements exist which involve the assignment or maintenance of non monetary benefits or the stipulation of special consultancy contracts in the event of the termination of an employment relationship. No agreements exist which involve non-competition commitments on termination of an employment relationship or leaving office.

As concerns the effects of the end of an employee relationship on existing incentive plans based on financial instruments approved by Recordati S.p.A., in accordance with Art. 114 bis of the Consolidated Finance Act, the 2014-2018 Stock Option Plan approved by the Shareholders’ Meeting held on 17th April 2014 provides for the following: “Unless established otherwise by the Board or the Committee Chairman, the termination of a Participant’s employment contract with the Company or, according to the case, with another company of the Group, (the “Termination of the Employment Contract”), for any reason, will result in the automatic exclusion of the Participant from the Plan and the permanent and irrevocable loss of validity for the tranches not yet vested of the Options already granted at the date of Termination of the Employment Contract”.

Without prejudice to the previous paragraph, if on the date of the Termination of Employment, a Participant in the Plan holds Options in relation to one or more tranches that have already vested, but which have not yet been exercised, that Participant may exercise the Options in relation to those tranches that have already vested within 30 days of the date of the Termination of Employment, while those Options lose all validity if they are not exercised within that period; nevertheless, if the Termination of the Employment Contract is due to the retirement of the Participant, the latter may, unless decided otherwise by the Remuneration Committee or by the Board, exercise those Options already vested, but not yet exercised on the date of the Termination of the Employment Contract, until the Expiry Date.

Page 18: Approved by the Board of Directors March 2015 · This is an English courtesy translation of the original documentation prepared in Italian language 1 RECORDATI S.p.A. REPORT ON REMUNERATION

18

Without prejudice to the previous paragraph, in the event of the Termination of the Employment Contract due to death or permanent invalidity of a Participant in the Plan, the Options already granted on the date of the Termination of the Employment Contract shall become immediately exercisable by the heirs of the Participant in the case of the death of the latter, or by the Participant in person or his/her legal representative if incapacitated in the case of permanent invalidity, for a period of one year following the date of the Termination of the Employment Contract. After that period of one year has passed, the Options shall permanently and irrevocably lose their validity. If an Employment Contract is terminated for other reasons, the Board or the Remuneration Committee may decide, at its sole discretion, that the Options granted to the Participant in question may be exercised immediately, if it considers that particular circumstances exist which make it appropriate, in the case in question, to make this decision. In all cases, the termination of the employment contract of a Participant with the Company as a result of the transfer of the latter to another company in the Group, does not constitute a case of Termination of the Employment Contract for the purposes of the provisions that precede this paragraph. However, it does constitute Termination of Employment in cases where a change of control occurs, in the sense of a transfer to third parties (i) of the subsidiary to which the Participant belongs by the Company or (ii) of the company or the part of the company in which the Participant works by the Company or one of its subsidiaries.”

The 2010 - 2013 Plan Stock Option Plan that is still ongoing provides for the following in relation to options granted under that plan: “Unless established otherwise by the Board or the Committee Chairman, the termination of a Participant’s employment contract with the Company or, according to the case, with another company of the Group, depending on the context (the “Termination of the Employment Contract”), for any reason, will result in the automatic exclusion of the Participant from the Plan and the permanent and irrevocable loss of validity for the tranches not yet vested of the Options already granted at the date of Termination of the Employment Contract”. Without prejudice to the above, if at the date of Termination of the Employment Contract, a Participant in the Plan possesses Options which have already vested in relation to one or more tranches, but which have not yet been exercised, the Participant may exercise those Options, in relation to the tranches already vested, within 30 days of the date of the Termination of the Employment Contract, while those Options shall lose all validity if they are not exercised within that period. Without prejudice to the above, in the event of the Termination of the Employment Contract due to death or permanent invalidity of a Participant in the Plan, the Options already granted on the date of the Termination of the Employment Contract shall become immediately exercisable by the heirs of the Participant in the case of the death of the latter, or by the Participant in person of his/her legal representative if incapacitated in the case of permanent invalidity, for a period of one year following the date of the Termination of the Employment Contract. After that period of one year has passed, the Options shall permanently and irrevocably lose their validity. In all cases, the termination of the employment contract of a Participant with the Company as a result of the transfer of the latter to another company in the Group, does not constitute a case of Termination of the Employment Contract for the purposes of the provisions that precede this paragraph. However, it does constitute Termination of Employment in cases where a change of control occurs, in the sense of a transfer to third parties (i) of the subsidiary to which the Participant belongs by the Company or (ii) of the company or the part of the company in which the Participant works by the Company or one of its subsidiaries.”
